I got mail from build-bot. Sparse warning. Bot suggested staticizing
the dev_delayed_work_autocancel(). I should've been more careful.
It how ever made me wonder if this would actually be worth exporting?
There seems to be few drivers which need delayed wq and which implement
.remove() just to call the cancel_delayed_work_sync().
I think this might help cleaning up those(?) Or am I completely off
here?
I just did:
git grep -A15 remove |grep -B10 -A10 cancel_delayed_work_sync
in drivers directory and spotted couple of candidates like
watchdog/retu_wdt.c (should also use devm_watchdog_register_device)
regulator/qcom_spmi-regulator.c
power/supply/sbs-charger.c
power/supply/sbs-battery.c
power/supply/ltc2941-battery-gauge.c
...
And no. I am not offering to go through _all_ drivers, but I guess I
could go through at least few of them :)
And sorry for noise if this has been suggested and rejected before - I
didn't spot something like this from mail lists. (Maybe I am missing
something?)
